C'mon, folks. This is in the WaiWai section of Mainichi. a.k.a. the bullshit column. (Though they did cover the Yaguchi deparature in there.)

BS or not, they ARE actual articles taken from real magazines in Japan and translated.

And the article with Mari's departure was in the "The Face" section of the site, in case anyone was looking for it, HERE'S THE LINK (http://mdn.mainichi-msn.co.jp/waiwai/face/archive/news/2005/20050422p2g00m0dm999000c.html).

""After she gave me the flick, the first thing I did was stick up my (pin-up girl) Maki Goto calendar..."


Maki Goto = Pin-Up Girl???


Not musician? Not idol?  :x

Whoever translated the article obviously doesn't know who Maki is.  He probably just assumed she was a pin-up girl, as most calender/poster girls here in North America are just pin-up girls.
